Some of the poems in
A Day without Fear
are months old while a few were written over forty years ago. Altogether this is an eclectic collection of poems ranging from the very imaginative to the pastoral to the hard poems about mortality and what happens after death, if anything. In this chaotic and harrowing world, it's hard to live a day without fear, but we have to try. As far as we know, this is the only life we're going to get.
